BLAINE IN CHICAGO.
He Remains Quietly at His Hotel and Re-
fuses to BE InterYieMel.


CHICAGO, April 22.-James g. Blaine had
large number of callers at the Grand Paci-
6c hotel, but he was inaccessible save to
select few. He was still so farigued from his
long journey from the Indian territory that
he was disinciined to see any one, but so
many Il his friends importuned him that he
finally gave audience to few. A commit
tee from the Chicago Bankers association
waited onlhim and invited him to attend the
annual banquet, but he declined on the plea
that he did not think he would be we'll
enough. Mr.. Blaine said he did not wish to
over exert himself at present, as he was quite
weak from his travels, although he felt as
we'll as could be expected. "The truth of the
NATTER" said Mr. Walker Blaine, ''is that
father is here to see us boys and rest for
lew days, and after that he will continue his
Journey east. While here he will not accept
any invitations of a social nature, and will
make no more exertion than he is act ally
obliged to- He will probably leave the city

Homo md Holm Rooms

The above name was most ftly aud
happily chosen by the practical ladies who
have inaugurated the beneficent work for
women and girls on Fourteenth street,
south OF the avenue. The rooms have
truly been the means OF hope and help to q
goodly number OF women and girls the past
week, all Of the ready resources having
been called into requisition TO meet the
needs Of those who have applied for shell
ter, advice, and sympathy; eight In all have
been substantially aided. The unvarnshel
story of seduction and wrong suffered on the
part of some of these is enough to make any
mother or even philanthropic heart sal, In
deed, in sympathy for the motherless child.
The JOY OF being In reach Of those who so
sadly need advice and counsel, is full com
pensation for all time and labor expended
In fitting up rooms and for means used in
keeping the house comfortable. Others
have come from haunts of deepest degrade.
tion, almost beyond hope, and with little
else in view but the potter's field. Some
bright, Intellectual, and even beautiful,
have clasped hands with the workers and,
with tears and prayers, looked up with hope
for better life, In the faith OF Him who
said, "Neither do condemn thee; 70 aud
sin no more" No more Christlike work
has been inaugurated by the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, and Its chain
of organization now extends throughout
our entire country. The public are co.
operating here and render valuable as
sstance.

AN APPEALING MORMON.
Interesting Case Before the United
states Supreme Court.

States supreme Court.
An interesting Mormon case, entitled tex
parte in the matter OF Lorenzo Snow, pc.
titioner and appellant" came up for argu.
ment in the United States Supreme Court
yesterday afternoon. Snow, the appellant,
a Mormon citizen of Utah, was Indicted,
tried, and found guilty on three separate
charges Of unlawful cohabitation with seven
women, whom he called his wives. The
cohabltation is said in each indictment to
have been with the same women, but the
indictments cover different periods OF time,
one being for the year 1883, one for 1884,
and the remaining one for the first eleven
months OF 1885, The prisoner was sen
fenced In each case to six mouths i'm
prisonment In the penitentiary and to pay a
fine OF $500 and costs, and the terms
of imprisonment were made consecu-
tive, each TO begin as soon as the
previous one terminated. After Snow
had served out his first term of imprison.
ment lie applied to the third district court
OF Utah for discharge upon a writ Of habeas
corpus on the ground that he had COM
mitted only one continuous offense, and
that the judgments In two Of the cases were
void. He maintained that the court which
tried him had no right to seggregate con-
tiDuous offeDse into separate and distinct
periods and then try and punish him three
times for the same alleged crime The dis
trict court, however, decided that upon his
own showing he was not entitled to dis
charge, and therefore denied his petition
for o writ Of habeas corpus. From that
decision he has appealed to the Supreme
Court,

OF these spans being fifty feet above mean high

ccpt when trains are passing over the said

struCtion shall not be such as to admit of their

lay occur In opening tho said draw after the

Senator Mcpherson stated that the bill
simply authorized change, and he desired
the committee on commerce to act upon IL
without delay. There was no disposition to
interfere with the construction OF the bridge.
All that was desired was that it should be
constructed In manner that would not be
detrimental to navigation. Referred to the
committee on commerce.
